The third John Lennon song that represents transcendentalism on this list is "Instant Karma". The reason this song is transcendental is because Lennon tells listeners to get themselves together and join the human race or else karma will get them, and if they live life to the fullest they "shine on like the moon and the stars and the sun," and much like Lennon's warning, transcendentalists believe that you have to be an individual and live simply and truly to be happy.
